I thought Beeps has just a very flat face.

Yes, I just went through the registration process and made an account just to make that lame joke to you all.

I can sympathize with that.
Also I dont get why US americans claim that puns would be "lame". :?

And overthinking things.
Our two sources of power are punnage and overthinking. And shippers.
Our three sources of power are punnage, overthinking, and shippers. And nitpickery.
... I'll come in again.

--- Quote from: snubnose on 17 Sep 2020, 00:07 ---I'm really curious if theres actually 2048 different fruits - or if they had to switch the naming scheme at some point.
P.s.: Nevermind, apparently there are 7500 kinds of apples ALONE: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_apple_cultivars

P.S.S. They probably wouldn't be able to use any apple names, seems a certain computer company has a lot of lawyers and goes after anyone that uses similar names, logos, or even UI design choices.
--- End quote ---
Someone better tell Apple Martin she is banned from using her given name...
All joking aside, this is actually an issue that pro wrestlers have when they leave one promotion or another. A name is only "owned" by a company if it's created by them. Your given name isn't owned by them, they legally can't bar you from using it. They can bar you from presenting as being part of a family or associated with a company, but they can't bar you from using your own name.

One wrestler traded his trademarked nickname for a tryout deal so they could use nickname for the Undertaker.
He didn't pass the tryout. But they got through trademark.
Seems like more than one mark in that Story!
Thrudd:
The whole doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting a different outcome at some point has politician/bureaucrat written all over it.
A good/bad real world example in my local news is that the Toronto Police services board is increasing the number of mobile crisis teams since they have been doing so well up till now ........ :psyduck:
(click to show/hide)/Begin tangential rant
Yeah more armed and battle ready cops to HELP those in mental distress is such a great idea.
It's not like the police eat up the vast majority of the cities budget.
Officers are more concerned with revenue generation [city or personal] than the actual well being of its citizens.
I point to the oficers sitting in their cars at construction sites not actually paying attention to anything except their cellphones and taking jobs away from traffic cones.
Then there is all the disinformation they constantly push, like "Speed Kills".
If there was any truth to that statement then every driver participating in any form of racing should be dead as well as half the audience at the event.
Fun bit of trivia - top two causes of death among police officers is heart attacks and single vehicle high speed collisions.
/end tangential rant
Where were we again?
Oh right - doing the same thing repeatedly hoping for a different result
